One of our favorite activities this summer has been going to the playground. There is a really nice, huge playground that is a 10 minute walk from our house, and we love getting out and checking things out. Right now Owen particularly likes the swings, but I think next summer, there will be quite a bit for him to do!
We took him to the playground for the first time in May. It took him a few minutes to warm up to the swings, but once he did, it was non-stop giggles!!
Owen loved the swings the first time he tried them (5 months)
Not quite sure about the slide yet, though (5 months)
We also have played on a playground in Indiana when Aunt Katie and Jonah were visiting. We had a lot of fun there, too! It was really the first time he had been on the playground equipment...not just the swings! :) (Please excuse the camera phone pictures)

I love the playground!!! (7 1/2 months)
I really love the park close to our house. There is so much for kids to do (and I especially love that it's close!). Now that this summer is winding down and fall is fast approaching, I am getting really excited for next summer when Owen will be walking around, exploring all there is to see at the playground!
The little kids playground. There is also a HUGE wood playground for bigger kids.
There is also a splash area with a lot of cool water stuff. *I only mildly felt like a child molester while I was taking pictures of what could have appeared to be other people's children! :)
Still loving the swings! (8 1/2 months)
I don't really know what this thing is, but he LOVES it! :) (8 1/2 months)
Playing in the wooden kitchen (8 1/2 months)
I really can't talk enough about this park...it's so cool. It's called the All-Children's Playground, and the vast majority of it is designed to accommodate children with special needs as well. It's just really cool! :)
